Immersive video exhibition Onur Can Tepe on work DP6 at RADIUS, Delft
2024.08.15In the underground exhibition space of art center RADIUS, the exhibition DP6 25. REFLECTIONS will be shown on the 31st of August. Filmmaker Onur Can Tepe lets visitors experience DP6's architectural work in three immersive video installations. You feel and smell the materials, experience how architecture can encourage connection and how the human being is at the heart of the designs.
A bridge, a cinema, a high school, a social housing complex, an art center, an exhibition pavilion and two villas play the main roles in the exhibition celebrating the 25th anniversary of the Delft-based architecture firm. Onur Can Tepe spent a full day in each of the buildings and with its users, discovering rituals and cycles while filming. He says: "Architecture serves as a frame for a series of bodily experiences. It is filled in by life itself and that happens at the moment when the architect hands over their control. In this exhibition, I tried to direct my focus on how spaces move us, direct our gaze, or create rooms where we gather, all of which are rituals that architecture inspires."
Besides the video installations, several models will be on display and the architects will give tours through art center RADIUS. This is the transformed pump house with circular water cellar belonging to the water tower complex on the north side of downtown Delft.
Admission is free from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. at Kalverbos 20.
